9/4 misfire

[ladytakamaki]

They seemed like real jerks, though. So just make sure you've got your tough guy pants on when you talk to them, okay?

[fabrefactions]

I have jeans, but I'm not sure if they qualify as 'tough'.

[ladytakamaki]

Oh
Hi Yusuke!
That was meant for someone else. Ugh...this stupid app!

But...what kinda jeans do you have?

[fabrefactions]

This is happening very frequency. A glitch in the app, I take it?

... Jeans... jeans? They were blue but now they're not.

[ladytakamaki]

Yeah...something like that, I think. It's never happened before...

Don't tell me you painted over them...

[fabrefactions]

How strange. Did they get hacked?

No. But they were blue.

HOW TF DID I NOT ANSWER THIS

[ladytakamaki]

I don't know. Glitches happen all the time in Retrospec, so it's probably just that.

I want my eye color back :(

ALLLLLLL BYYYYY MYYYSSSEEELLLLFFFFFFF

[fabrefactions]

That seems poor quality control. Surely there should be a way to report glitches in apps so they can be fixed?

Some people have said that the colour blue is returning to certain things. Perhaps your eye colour will return soon?

DON'T WANNA BE

[ladytakamaki]

I'm pretty sure they're aware of it. This happens all the time.

I hope so... I'm pretty sure the lack of color's been going on for a while, too. Doesn't that affect your art?

etc

[fabrefactions]

Then there is even less of an excuse! Surely they aren't proud, releasing a sub par product onto an unwilling public?

It is strange. I am aware I have lost something and don't know what to replace it with, other than what was taken from me in the first place.

[ladytakamaki]

I think this is their 'beta' phase or something...

Isn't it weird, how you didn't notice it before? How blue wasn't a color until you got here? Man, when I realized all of these changes...it was really overwhelming.

If you have any questions, let me know, okay?

[fabrefactions]

[They're not out of beta, but they're releasing on time?]

It is overwhelming. I keep looking up at the sky, expecting blue and-- it looks constantly as though it will rain.

It's quite gloomy. I'm sure there's beauty it in, but finding that beauty right now is just... difficult.

[ladytakamaki]

Don't worry. It's been slowly coming back..we'll get blue skies soon, I'm sure of it.

[fabrefactions]

I think it would be less jarring, transitioning from not knowing to knowing, if something as important as the sky were to remain its usual colour.

[ladytakamaki]

True. I mean...knowing how it used to be is kinda depressing. Everything's just a little more..lifeless?

[fabrefactions]

[That's a very... on point way of describing it.]

... Yes. Everything feels just a little less bright. I hope we can change that soon.

[ladytakamaki]

Me too. I don't know how everything's coming back,
but it's happening, so I know it must be possible.

I miss having my eye color...

[fabrefactions]

Hm. My eye colour is naturally grey, so I cannot say I have felt the same personal loss. But for the sake of everyone with blue eyes who have lost their natural shade, I hope we get blue back soon.

[ladytakamaki]

...Right. I forgot about that. You're a lucky guy.

[fabrefactions]

That's a narrow interpretation of lucky. I have lost my natural hair colour as a pay off.

[ladytakamaki]

Okay...that's true.
Is it really your natural hair color?

[fabrefactions]

I remember my hair having a slightly navy-ish tint, but now that appears to have gone, along with my ability to see blue.

[ladytakamaki]

I don't think it's your ability to see blue. I think it's just...the color itself is gone.

[fabrefactions]

Yet it is still present in flowers. How? And how is it decided that people lose their eye colours and the sky turns grey, yet flowers remain the same?

[ladytakamaki]

Retrospec.
It's messing with the entire city as we know it.
Trust.
